Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have a cavity in my tooth. How to get it fixed?
Kindly help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Thank you for your query.
You have to consult a dentist who can get the tooth extracted soon. Use warm salt water gargle twice a day to remove some infection and to keep the area clean. If it gets painful you may need antibiotics like Augmentin and painkillers too.
I hope this has helped you. Thank you.
